Experience the ghostly events, ghastly historical happenings, gruesome affairs and creepy customs of Llandeilo in the past.
Join your guides Brooke and Ronnie as they take you on a torch-lit walking tour around the darkened streets of Llandeilo where you will hear tales of the strange, surreal and supernatural… Ghastly historical events, gruesome affairs, creepy customs and ghostly experiences. All completely true accounts taken from local newspapers of the time, historical writers such as Thomas Jenkins and Anne Beale, and of course, modern, unexplained eye-witness evidence recounted by local residents.
Who are your tour guides?
Brooke and Ronnie share a fascination of folklore and an interest in the unexplained.
Some of you may know Ronnie from Dinefwr Park where she leads the After Dark events. As The Past Timer, she is also a storyteller of dark, folkloric tales and performs talks for various organisations in all things strange, surreal and historical. She has been leading tours for 27 years and once served a "four year sentence" at The London Dungeon, where she created experiences that brought the past horribly back to life!
A passionate keeper of the old ways, Brooke infuses a deep love of nature, Celtic folklore and Welsh tradition into her work and practice. Honouring the rhythm of the land, she weaves native plant wisdom, animal lore and ancient myths into heritage crafts, storytelling and seasonal rituals, including the haunting Mari Lwyd procession of winter.
We look forward to sharing an eerie evening with you! The tour lasts approx 1.5 hours (definitely under 2 hours!) Don't forget your torch!
